Sean âDiddyâ Combsâ supporters celebrated his verdict with his favourite âFreak-Offâ essential â baby oil.
After the jury announced Wednesday that Diddy was found not guilty on two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and racketeering conspiracy, his fans celebrated by spraying baby oil on one another in front of the Manhattan federal courthouse. Per a video shared online, one of Combsâ supporters rejoiced by screaming and jumping up and down as a man poured a mini-sized bottle of the moisturizer all over her chest as people watched in awe. The crowd, many of whom had followed the proceedings closely, marked the occasion by spraying each other with baby oil, a reference to the substance that became a notorious detail during the trial. Brooklyn resident Tes Harper, known as âOota on Go,â was seen carrying a tube of baby oil, while other fans danced, celebrated and playfully doused each other, turning the courthouse steps into a scene reminiscent of the âfreak-offsâ described in testimony.
The use of baby oil as a celebratory prop directly alluded to the trialâs testimony, where witnesses described its prominent role in Diddyâs alleged private parties. During the proceedings, prosecutors highlighted the discovery of hundreds of bottles of baby oil during raids on Diddyâs properties, and several witnesses recounted how aides were instructed to prepare hotel rooms with large quantities of it for gatherings.
